One can only hope that Mr. Brown has seen the error of his ways and realizes that Romneycare is a farce.

Kennedy is a modern Don Qixote. If Coakley wins by 3 percent or less, it will be beacause of him.

Kennedy is no tea party candidate. He is a life-long dem who recently decides he is an independent (not Libertarian as he claims). Don’t be fooled by what he says now, he is just a Trojan horse.

The Tea Party Express, which is comprised of groups like Free Republic, Campaign for Liberty, Grassfire, and ResistNet have endorsed Scott Brown.

And Joseph L. Kennedy is really forgettable.

He’s from Massachusetts. Of course he’s a Liberal. But he’s not Martha Coakley.

I think everyone realizes that Brown is not a Conservative. But he's so much better than Coakley, and he says he would oppose Obama Care. And if he wins, it would send shockwaves across the country -- MA is waking up. MA is over the Kennedys. Even MA opposes Obama.

Huge payoff for Conservatives and Tea Party supporters. In many ways, this is not about supporting Scott Brown. It's about opposing the Democrats.

I'm pretty much a purist, and I don't want to support RINIOs. But I say that Scott Brown deserves my vote.

Hopefully some of the idiot Mass libs will look at the ballot and think “whoa, I didnt realize a Kennedy was running!” and vote for him.

The seat has been occupied by a Kennedy since what, 1953?

I beg anyone and everyone in Massachusetts who cares about liberty and stopping Obamacare: vote for Scott Brown. Do not waste your vote on the pseudo-Libertarian Kennedy.

And be sure to drag your family and friends to the polls for Scott Brown. The Democratic machine will be voting cemeteries, parking lots, and non-existent addresses. Fight back against this Democratic corruption.

Are the folks at Pajamasmedia stupid? Are they in league with the democrat party? Kennedy is a leftist ringer. Associating clowns like this with the Tea Party movement is the fastest way to kill the Tea Party movement.

If they don’t know that much, they can’t be taken seriously on anything.

Actually, Scott Brown is very conservative for New England standards. He has never voted for a tax increase in the State Senate; is strong on national defense; and he opposes Obamacare. On social issues, Scott opposes partial birth abortion and strongly supports parental notification.

That’s been my thought also.

Does MA have a “straight party” choice on the ballot? If so, I believe that would hurt Brown.

I don't know anything about Kennedy and am not endorsing him. It's the Brown comments that are interesting.

The Tea Party Express, which is comprised of groups like Free Republic, Campaign for Liberty, Grassfire, and ResistNet have endorsed Scott Brown.

Brown has to be better than Mutha Coakley but is apparently another lesser-evil choice.

Considering the fixation on Romney-Care here, this should be known of Brown.

That will happen. Coakley made a big mistake including him in the debates

Kennedy is right on spending and wrong on the war. He is an isolationist that sounds great on paper until you find out its a dangerous world. Basically a Paulite.

Pray for America and Scott Brown

I don't know if it is the lesser of two evils, but a reality that one must come to terms with. Whereas I would love nothing better than 100 conservative senators, that may not be feasible considering the demographics of certain areas of the country. That realization may save a lot of gnashing of teeth. (not that you are doing that.) Same is true with the House. For example, Harlem is not going to elect a conservative...

To get Brown in Kennedy's seat would be a major victory and not the lesser of two evils.

This is always the case unless you are a groupie or one of the candidates.

And I take it as reality that it shouldn't matter as much as it does who is in office. Cut government down to size and it won't so much matter.
